Feel the rhythm.

Smashing gender stereotypes and celebrating the strong, talented men and boys in dance, this book made my heart positively soar!

Told in perfectly lyrical, flowing rhyme, Boys Dance! is a joyful introduction to the dance world. Radiating positivity and encouragement on every page, the book highlights the strength, skill, discipline, and passion that male dancers possess in abundance. I loved that real dance icons are featured in the book, it’s not only inspiring but also a great way to introduce boys to potential role models.

“Training hard, you’ll break a sweat
while you rehearse your pirouette.”

This book was created by the American Ballet Theatre and I am so overjoyed that they brought it into the world. Boys do dance, and hopefully more are encouraged to step into a pair of dance shoes - or support a friend to take center stage - after reading this.
